Home Office
The Home Office uses immigration bail digital reporting (IBDR) to allow people to acknowledge bail conditions using either email or mobile phone messaging. This digital reporting condition may be in addition to your current bail conditions, or it may replace your current bail conditions.
If you have been given an IBDR condition
Well contact you either by email or mobile phone messaging if you are subject to IBDR conditions. You must acknowledge this by following the instructions you will be given within the message sent.
Any IBDR contact must be responded to by you, and not by anyone on your behalf including legal representatives and immigration advisers, unless you have been instructed to respond as a family unit.
We may also ask you to attend one of our reporting centres as part of our process of maintaining contact with you.
IBDR uses essential cookies to prevent fraud.
If you dont acknowledge your IBDR
You may be in breach of your immigration bail conditions If you dont acknowledge your IBDR and any reminders we send after.
We may need to change your immigration bail conditions and ask you to attend one of our reporting centres.
Updating your contact details
Once youre registered onto IBDR, you will be able to change your contact details online.
If you have a technical issue with your IBDR
If you have IBDR as a bail condition and are encountering any technical issues, please email: hoimmigrationbaildigitalreporting@homeoffice.gov.uk.
